The document summarizes recent malware outbreaks and cyber attacks targeting the state government. It notes that in February and March, several malware outbreaks infected over 1,000 end-user computers within the state network. These were contained but cost over $500,000. In March, a hacking group called Vikingdom launched DDoS attacks that briefly took down the state website and vowed further attacks. The state took measures like IP address changes and network separation to limit the impacts. The document also provides statistics on ongoing intrusion attempts and infected devices within the state network. It outlines the challenges in protecting state data from increasingly sophisticated cyber criminals, hacktivists, foreign governments, and terrorist groups.
